Own Fate novel Chapter 383

Chapter 383

One question after another was hurled at Sophia, threatening to drown her in the barrage.

“I have proof,” Sophia said softly, her words floating out amidst the chaos.

What sounded so light suddenly landed like a bombshell, crushing every other voice in the room.

“I have the chat records,” Sophia added.

She never expected Skyler to let his guard down like that–he just called her up out of the blue, totally off guard.

The moment she answered, Sophia hit record. Skyler hadn’t spelled things out, but now that she was pregnant, it didn’t matter what she’d done–the baby was innocent. Anything Trevor did wrong would get blown up in the media.

A staff member of Bree Technology pulled something up on the computer, and the next thing everyone heard was a conversation playing over the speakers.

Skylar said, “You can name your price, just as long as you cooperate.

“Trevor isn’t just some regular celebrity. He’s part of the Wilson family. You really need to think about what you’re getting yourself into and what the consequences could be.

“Even if, by some miracle, you manage to marry into the Wilson family because of this baby, so what? Trevor doesn’t care, and

like do you really think anyone in the Wilson family will ever treat you

matter? you

Sophia repied, “I don’t care about any of that. All I want is for my child to be recognized by his father.”

Compared to Skyler switching between threats and persuasion, Sophia’s response–whether she meant it or not–at least sounded way more selfless.

As the recording played, the air went dead silent for a few seconds.

Sophia picked up the microphone. “Say I’m just trying to get attention, say I brought this on myself if you want–but the baby is innocent.

“I just want him to have a chance to see the world. Trevor pressured me to put on a show for the media, to act like we were some loving couple, and then planned to use an ‘accident‘ as an excuse to get rid of the baby.

“He promised me money afterward, but I refused. If I were really after money, I could’ve just stayed hidden until the baby was born, or agreed to Trevor’s terms, taken the cash, and disappeared.

“I just want my baby to have a family, to have a father.”

Meanwhile, at the Wilson family home in Rithol City, several family members had gathered in front of the TV.

As the time for the press conference approached, they turned on the live stream.

On the screen, the press conference was just getting started as Aubree walked in with a group of Bree Technology executives.

Despite their different motives, there was a hint of excitement in all their eyes.

Even though Bryan Wilson always said they shouldn’t force Aubree to come back like this, he never actually tried to stop it.

In fact, deep down, he was hoping their father would crush Aubree financially and force her into bankruptcy, so she’d have no choice but to return home.

At first, everything was going according to their plan. But when Quantavius got arrested, everyone in the Wilson family looked utterly stunned.
